Disappointed

Earlier today I made a call to the call center. I called from a cell phone to log a return. Naturally I selected the appropriate department for returns. After 9 minutes of waiting I got through to an agent. After explaining her my issue she tells me I should do it online. I explained that the reason I called was that my phone would not allow me to log a return hence the reason for calling to log it. She then proceeded to tell me I'm in the wrong department and she would transfer me. I told her that I waited too long already and I'm calling from a cell phone. Furthermore I explained to her that the matter is urgent as it is an appliance that's faulty and I urgently needed a credit on my account so I can buy another one. As it is an iron I would require it soon so I needed quick efficient feedback and return. She promised me she would get an agent to call me back immediately from the returns team. I am still waiting and have not received a call as yet. This is sad and disappointing as I am a loyal and avid shopper on takealot. I need quick response in this matter. However no one even had the decency to call me back. Disappointing a loyal customer is not good service at all!

Hello Tasnim Kazi,

Thank you for taking our complaints team's call to apologise for the troubles you experienced with our call centre last night. As explained it is not possible to log a return on a mobile device and we apologise that the agent did not inform you about this or assisted you in logging your request. We'll address this with the agent in question accordingly. We have created a return request for you and since the product is outside of our 30 day returns policy an immediate replacement is not possible.

Our courier will be in touch with you to arrange the product's collection for return to our DC. Returned products take 2-5 business days to reach our warehouse, depending on when the collection is scheduled. Once received, your return request will be processed within 1-3 business days. Should your request be approved your account will then be credited.

Kind Regards,
